The display shows a generator connected to a house, with readings for voltage (400V), frequency (50.0Hz), operating hours (332.1h), and RPM (1499RPM). Below the screen are three buttons: red "Stop", blue "Auto", and green "Start". A green LED indicates operational status.

Key features include automatic mains failure (AMF) functionality, engine protection, generator protection, and a user-friendly interface with a clear display and intuitive buttons.

4. Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the reliable operation of the InteliNano NT MRS controller. Refer to the detailed wiring diagrams provided in the separate installation guide for specific connections.

4.1 Mounting

Mount the controller in a secure, vibration-free location, typically within a control panel. Ensure adequate ventilation to prevent overheating. The panel cut-out dimensions are specified in the technical data sheet.

4.2 Wiring Connections

Connect the controller to the genset, mains, and other necessary sensors and actuators according to the wiring diagram. Pay close attention to:

  • Power Supply: Connect the DC power supply (typically 8-36V DC) to the designated terminals.
  • Mains Voltage Inputs: Connect the mains voltage sensing inputs.
  • Generator Voltage Inputs: Connect the generator voltage sensing inputs.
  • Current Transformer (CT) Inputs: Connect the CTs for current measurement.
  • Engine Inputs/Outputs: Connect engine sensors (oil pressure, water temperature, fuel level) and actuators (start/stop solenoid, fuel pump).
  • Communication Ports: If applicable, connect communication cables for remote monitoring or configuration.

All wiring must comply with local electrical codes and standards.

5. Operating Instructions

The InteliNano NT MRS controller features a simple three-button interface for primary operation modes.

5.1 Control Buttons

  • STOP (Red Button): Puts the controller into STOP mode. The genset will shut down if running, and will not start automatically.
  • AUTO (Blue Button): Puts the controller into AUTO mode. The genset will automatically start and stop based on mains supply conditions (AMF functionality) or remote start signals. This is the typical operating mode for unattended operation.
  • START (Green Button): Initiates a manual start of the genset. The genset will run until manually stopped or an alarm occurs.

5.2 Display Information

The LCD display provides real-time information about the genset and mains status. Use the arrow buttons (up/down) next to the display to scroll through various parameters such as:

  • Generator Voltage (e.g., 400V)
  • Generator Frequency (e.g., 50.0Hz)
  • Engine Speed (RPM)
  • Engine Operating Hours (e.g., 332.1h)
  • Battery Voltage
  • Oil Pressure
  • Coolant Temperature
  • Mains Voltage and Frequency
  • Active Alarms

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable performance of your InteliNano NT MRS controller.

  • Cleaning: Periodically clean the controller's front panel with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Connections Check: Annually inspect all wiring connections for tightness and signs of corrosion. Loose connections can lead to erratic behavior or damage.
  • Firmware Updates: Check the manufacturer's website for available firmware updates. Updates can improve performance and add new features.
  • Battery Check: Ensure the genset's battery, which powers the controller, is in good condition and properly charged.
